    I have been shopping at the Barger Ave., Eugene, Oregon Winco since it opened. Before that, I shopped there when it was called Waremart- at the corner of Garfield and West 11th in Eugene. Winco is not going to give you a pretentious boutique grocery experience like Market of Choice or Safeway will. It doesn’t pretend to be anything other than it is: an employee owned warehouse grocery store. You can pay with debit card, check, or cash. They will not take credit cards. You also have to bag your own groceries. This is part of the reason that they are able to offer dramatically lower prices than any other grocery store in the Eugene area. Another convenient feature is the fact that they are open 24 hours a day. So no matter what shift you work, you can go to Winco and get your grocery shopping done ANY time of day. Another unique feature of Winco is the massive bulk section. I’ve checked, almost every single time on every single item in the bulk section that I buy I save significantly over prepackaged items and products, and I also really appreciate being able to buy the exact amount I wish to have. They have a decent bulk spice section that I just love. Huge savings to buy my herbs and spices that way. Also, they have a great selection of bulk roasted coffee, Red Brick brand. The last time I looked it was $6.98 a pound. That’s an ACTUAL 16 oz. pound, not the pre-pack 12 ounce packages that any brand of coffee is now generally packed in. You can buy whole bean and grind it right there in their machines, or take it home and grind it in your own grinder. You can also buy red brick coffee prepackaged and pre-ground… And I’m pretty sure their pre-packed coffees are 12 ounces but I can’t swear to that. If you go at peak shopping time which would probably be starting at about 2:30 pm and running until about 7 pm, it can be pretty congested. But if you shop outside those times, it’s not bad... oh, also, I try to avoid doing my grocery shop at Winco on or around the first of the month, and especially on a Sunday. It’s a madhouse then. Whatever annoyances there are about the atmosphere of shopping at Winco or perhaps the crowds/traffic congestion at peak times, the savings makes it worth it to walk in there and get the shopping done. You will save money, and it will be a significant savings. The sale banners below were taken by me in March 2021 at a local Winco. These are examples of the kind of pricing you can find at Winco.

    Parking can be difficult. There is handicapped parking and they are ADA compliant. If your able park some distance away from entrance to avoid parking lot traffic and door dings! The store overall is clean they're definitely a lot of employees stocking merchandise but not very many are available when you need help. Please click <<<👍>>> button if you found this helpful. 🙂

    Nope. This store fails. They have rude employees. They also don’t provide quality motorized carts for people that need them. I have actually seen people sitting at the front waiting for a cart for more than an hour before. I know this because it took me an hour to do my shopping and the people who were waiting when I arrived were still waiting when I left. The motorized carts here are old. They need to update to ones that won’t go far from the store. I would say getting about twenty five new ones would be perfect.

    I reported these to WinCo 2 weeks ago. Terrible, old, tasteless. Even rotten fruit in the bag and I saw that they are still selling it this garbage. I don't think I will be back. You can't trust anything in the store unless it comes in a can. Disgraceful and irresponsible.

    First plenty of parking. Wide isles, and the costumers are very nice as well as the employees. Everything looked Amazing, Smelled Amazing, plenty of lighting to see all the products. And let me just say one last thing. Price's for what we got INCREDIBLE! AND YES INEXPENSIVE HOT FOOD.

    The manager at night at 1130pm she’s working right now. The short blonde head girl is nasty rude. Worst customer service I’ve ever gotten and I’ve lived here all my life. I don’t think she likes her job? GOOD Customer service is what makes your business and makes people want to come back. I’d reevaluate her asap. SHOUT OUT TO CORY. I’m pretty sure he’s a manger or higher up! He works in the afternoon I’m sure. He’s great. Always waves and has a smile on his face. Even when it’s extremely busy and stressful. Also Destiny the cashier that works at night is AMAZING! Greatest customer service EVER! A keeper for sure :)

    I try and shop at Winco Foods for most of my grocery shopping, as most of their foods are on the cheaper side for the quality they provide. I love to purchase red meat from here in bulk because they have decent pricing on red meats. I love their bakery section and just the smell walking into the bakery section is like bakery heaven. They have loads of bulk foods such as pasta, beans, candy, and more that you can get by the pound. The produce is section is larger than most grocery stores such as Walmart or Fred Meyer's. It is also nice because they have the ability to allow customers to return cans and bottles for money redemption. The thing I dislike most about Winco foods though is the large lines and large amounts of people in the store.

    As ever, WinCo wins the day. These are good stores. These days try to find a good price, WinCo has good sales on good products. The pizza was hot and ready, you know, like that other place. Two bucks for a slice, eat it. Adaptable, professional, hard working people here. Go ahead, give them a raise. Excellent. This store was not too crowded and was rolling. Yes.

    $7.16 for heavy whipping cream at Winco right now. Was 3$ cheaper a week ago. It’s not even organic and don’t say that the manufacturers have increased their prices because my husband works at Nancy’s and they get milk and cream from Organic Valley daily and their prices didn’t go up, so it’s not the farmers. It’s pure greed or ignorance. Lower your prices. No one is going to buy that. Not even Market of Choice or Whole Foods charges that much. You’re insane. I hope people start robbing you blind, if you’re gonna do things like that, you deserve it. I may or may not be one of those people. A 3$ price increase is asinine.

    Line around the corner with only 3 cashiers on duty If y'all can't keep enough employees working maybe it's time to raise wages

    Affordable and not too busy now that there's 3 locations. I'm also a really big fan of bagging my own groceries. It's like a fun little game where I test how fast and logically I can bag lol

  • 5/5 Jennifer U. 10 months ago on Google
    Bulk foods at low prices if you look for the deals. Bring your own bags to save even further. The deli and bakery are great too. Been coming here for years.

  • 5/5 Andreas R. 1 year ago on Google
    I have anxiety and don't go here often, so for me, it was bright and crowded at 8pm on a Friday. They don't take credit card, so I had to leave and go get a debit out of my car, but the cashier was sweet and friendly about it. I bought a bunch of cow knee dog treats ($1.89 a piece!) And the cashier told me I should consider feeding my dog old free shoes. She said she had a lot she could give me free, but my dog might not like them since they didn't smell like me, but I could pee on them so they would. 10/10 love her.

    Good place to go grocery shopping. Generally lower prices than Fred Meyer, Safeway, or Albertsons. No credit cards accepted, though. You'll need to bag your own groceries. Bring your own bags.

    I shop the store on Chad Drive and waited patiently for Winco to open their doors in March of 2023. There is always a greeter present who is most courteous and helps customers needing help at self-check. If needing help finding an item, there is always someone willing to help. The prices are unbeatable, and the store is always clean and well stocked! I take my list and am in and out and back home before I know it! Call me a satisfied customer!

    Winco on Barger is the store I shop at. It is always busy but it is also always clean, well stocked and has a friendly staff. A store that is always busy tells me that they are a great place to go. No matter if a cashier has long lines or grumpy customers, they are still polite and efficient. They help each other if they need to and don't get flustered. There isn't a time that they are out of stock on an item, except during the very start of COVID. They were the only store that was open 24/7 during that time. I appreciate the lower prices at Winco rather than big-chain grocers, even with the big-chain coupons, and I love shopping there. It is the best place to shop for groceries in my opinion!!

  • 4/5 Haden M. 5 months ago on Google
    I love WinCo a metric butt tonne, but the place is getting a tad grimey in spots. The scale had a clean surface but the cracks are filled with crud. Not just the scanners that are grimed up around the place though. Thank you for everything nonetheless! Grime happens! Just don't let it stay ignored please and thank you <3

  • 1/5 C B. 5 months ago on Google
    Barger's Winco is a mess. The parking is ridiculous, especially for handicap people. Then there is a wait most of the time for an electric cart that is super old and slow. Most of the staff don't assist anyone and are quite rude when they are interrupted. Go to the Springfield one. At least you can get help out without feeling like a burden.

  • 5/5 cynthia b. 7 months ago on Google
    Seriously, what a great time! The prices are reasonable and the clerk? Ah-mazing!! Thanks Sandy!

  • 5/5 Ciera 11 months ago on Google
    They are always amazing in that store. The staff really understands and never judges anyone..not that I have seen and I've been going for years. And all my family from out of town we also tell them to go to Winco!

  • 3/5 Mister E. 1 year ago on Google
    Some of the better deals on groceries but the produce and meats are more miss then hit. I shop here multiple times a week, I've never stolen a thing from here, I'm not a thief. I had a case of water that didn't get scanned and was stopped by security on my way out the door. That's all fine and dandy, in fact good job. I offered to go back in and pay for it, I didn't know I hadn't. Then dumb goes to grab the case out of my hand and rips it open making it worthless, and dumber puts hands on me. I get they're doing the job and I appreciate the job they do but, offer these guys some training. I would have payed for the water, you can't even sell it now anyway. Putting hands on anyone in a situation like that isn't going to go your way all the time. I hate thieves though and you hold them accountable so I'll play nice, the wrong person on the wrong day though, who knows. Just a thought that might help you out.

  • 5/5 Ronzel R. 1 year ago on Google
    I like the cashiers help me organize my stuff so the breads aren't squished, things fit in the bags easier and I don't look as clumsy as I usually do. They're like family watching out for me. Thanks everyone

  • 4/5 brenda h. 1 year ago on Google
    Wayyyyy to many STREET CRIMES PEEPS around there after midnight. That place is straight sketchy/entertainingly/fun from afar! I don't recommend going after midnight.

  • 5/5 Ian B. 1 year ago on Google
    I love my WinCo, pretty low prices, large selection of goods. Have to bag your own groceries, best to bring your own bags.

  • 5/5 Susan K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great prices and convenience! ERIC, in the meat department is super friendly and helpful. Everything in the store is easy to find. Lots of variety. Employees seem happy and accommodating.

  • 5/5 Carrie S. 1 year ago on Google
    WinCo is probably the greatest grocery store treasure in the Eugene area. Affordable groceries for people who can't afford to shop at uptight grocery stores like Market of Choice, or even your average run of the mill ones like Safeway or Albertson's. Selection is pretty great (at least for edible groceries) as it is a very large warehouse. And if you like the idea of a bulk foods mecca, then this place is for you!

  • 4/5 Jacque S. 1 year ago on Google
    I love Winco, best produce anywhere. Still limited supply of canned cat food, but it is improving. Shelves were pretty well stocked.

  • 5/5 Chuck L. 1 year ago on Google
    Used to live nearby but, haven’t been in for years. Great selection of fruit and vegetables like I remember. Very clean and organized although, once in was a little like Costco and bought more than I was shopping for. Oh Well!!!

  • 5/5 Chavala S. 1 year ago on Google
    So far every time I have been to this store it has been wonderful!! All the staff are so friendly and helpful!! It's clean and well stocked and the prices are the best of any other grocery store.
